Using Net::NNTP to query NNTP servers using ->xover([recent-ish
range]) to scan for Message-IDs and Subjects matching the
current ident could be an option, too.

It could cache the xover result for --dry-run and format-patch
cases; and Net::NNTP is a standard Perl module.  Going online
to do this query also benefits people who work across different
machines/environments, as it's one less thing to sync.

Fwiw, this list has:
	nntp://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git
	nntp://news.public-inbox.org/inbox.comp.version-control.git

And there's a bunch of kernel lists at nntp://nntp.lore.kernel.org/
